“Strange things?”
Xu Qi ‘an pulled out a chair and sat down. He ordered Su Su to pour him a glass of water.
I’m not even your concubine yet, and you’re already ordering me around like this … The alluring ghost, susu, glanced at him and obediently went to pour some water. After all, they were talking about the murder case of her family.
She had to rely on this man’s help. Otherwise, she and her master, li Miaozhen, wouldn’t be able to find anything even after ten years of investigation.
After Xu Qian took a sip of tea, li Miaozhen said, ”
SuSu’s father is called su hang. He was a scholar in the 29th year of the Jean dynasty and in the 14th year of the yuanjing dynasty. For some unknown reason, he was demoted to Jiangzhou to be the magistrate. The next year, he was executed on the charges of bribery and corruption.
Xu Qi ‘an stroked the teacup and asked, “”What’s the problem?”
yes, ” li Miaozhen looked at susu, ” she doesn’t remember staying in Beijing. SuSu’s soul is complete. When my master found her, she absorbed the yin Qi in the mass grave to cultivate and had some small achievements. As long as she doesn’t leave the mass grave, she can live on forever.
“A vengeful spirit with such a cultivation base wouldn’t miss out on any memories, unless they were erased when they were alive.”
“Maybe, maybe I’ve never been to the capital,” said Su Su.
Xu Qi ‘an shook his head,”anyone who enters the capital as an official will have to move their family there.” I’m more inclined to believe that there’s something wrong with Su SU’s memory. Hmm, that’s interesting.”
The two people and the ghost were silent for a moment. Xu Qi ‘an said,”Since he’s an official of the capital, the Ministry of official personnel affairs should have his information … The Ministry of official personnel affairs is chief advisor Wang’s territory. He and Wei Yuan are political enemies. Without a good reason, I have no right to read the documents of the Ministry of official personnel affairs.
so don’t be anxious. Wait for an opportunity.
Li Miaozhen and Su Su nodded.
Xu Qi ‘an took a sip of the warm tea and said,”What’s your brother’s name? How old was he when the accident happened to the SU family?”
Susu tilted her head and thought for a moment. his name is su Chengzhi. He was about 11 or 12 years old when the family went through an accident.
He was about 31 or 32 years old now. There was no way to find a brother-in. law. It was like looking for a needle in. haystack … It would be great if Da Feng had a well-developed public security system … Xu Qi ‘an hinted, ”
I’ll try to find one for you, but don’t have too much hope.
Susu hummed in acknowledgment. She knew that finding her family was too difficult, so she did not force it.
After this matter was resolved, Xu Qi ‘an brought up the second matter. He looked at li Miaozhen and said, “”When do you plan to start the struggle between heaven and man?”
Li Miaozhen didn’t hesitate, ” let’s send a letter of challenge first and then set a time. Within seven days.
Xu Qi ‘an nodded slowly and said bluntly, “”You’d better not leave the capital before the end of the struggle between heaven and man. No matter what kind of letter you receive or who you come into contact with, do not leave.”
Li Miaozhen raised her eyebrows, ” you mean someone will harm me? ”
“That’s obvious.” Xu Qi ‘an sighed,”if something happens to you in the capital, will the Dao chief of the heavenly sect let it go?” A first rank earth God of Dao sect is probably not inferior to a supervisor.”
Susu puffed out her paper chest and said arrogantly, “”Knowing that our Dao chief is a rank one, there’s still someone who dares to harm master?”
Xu Qi ‘an felt sorry for the female ghost’s intelligence.”Your father is a Jinshi, but you didn’t inherit your father’s intelligence … It was precisely because Miao Zhen was the Holy Virgin of the heavenly sect that she was coveted by many.
“His Majesty is engrossed in cultivation. In order to maintain the stability of power, he has facilitated the current multi-party chaotic battle in the court. Some people had long been dissatisfied with this. The battle between heaven and man was a good opportunity for them to take advantage of …
“In addition, everyone knows about this matter, and the people of the martial world are pouring into the capital. There must be spies from other countries among them. These people want li Miaozhen to die in the capital.”
Su Su suddenly realized.
“You’re a fourth-rank Daoist, and ordinary people are no match for you. It’s wishful thinking for a fourth-rank expert from a foreign clan to come into the capital to kill you. And the experts of the Imperial court will not make a move in the capital unless they are willing to die.”
“Thank you for the reminder. I understand.” “I’ll arrange for ghosts to guard the Xu mansion,” li Miaozhen said.”If there are any suspicious people approaching, I’ll immediately give a warning.” When the time comes, I’ll either make my move or leave the Xu residence, so your family won’t be affected. Although the possibility of that is not high.”
“That damned Emperor Yuan jing,” she couldn’t help but sneer.
Hey. hey, watch your words. You can just say this online … Xu Qi ‘an smiled and nodded. He stood up and said, “”In that case, I, an outsider, won’t disturb the two ladies” beautiful dreams.”
He left the room under li Miaozhen and SuSu’s slightly confused eyes.
…………
The 27th of March was the best time for blessing, dress cutting, travel, and marriage.
Today was the day of the court examinations. It was exactly a month away from the end of the examinations.
The sky was hazy when his aunt woke up. She was wearing an exquisitely embroidered long dress, and her hair was slightly messy. She only used a gold hairpin to hold it up.
Her beautiful eyes were a little dazed, and she looked like she had not woken up. Her eye bags were puffy.
As Auntie arranged for the kitchen maid to make breakfast for Erlang, she knocked on Erlang’s door with her personal maid, Lu ‘er.
Xu niannian was wearing a light white robe, with the purple jade from recluse Purple Sun hanging on his waist. He opened the door for his mother in high spirits.
“Erlang, you’re up so early?” His aunt yawned and said, ”
“Mother has asked the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Erlang, do you want to sleep for another fifteen minutes? mother will come and wake you up.”
“No need,”
Xu Erlang was an eighth-grade Confucian scholar, and his energy was far greater than that of ordinary people. He comforted his mother, ” mother, don’t worry. The court examination is a ranking examination. With my status, I won’t be too low.
